description | Salinity affects crop growth and productivity, and this stress can be increased along with drought or high temperature stresses and poor irrigation management. Cultivation of salt-tolerant crops plays a critical role in enhancing crop yield under salt stress. In the past few decades, the mechanisms of plant adaptation to salt stress have been described, especially relying on ionic homeostasis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging, and phytohormone signaling. The studies of these molecular mechanisms have provided a basis for breeding new salt-tolerant crop germplasm and have facilitated the entry into the era of molecular breeding of salt-tolerant crops. In this review, we outline the recent progress in the molecular regulations underlying crop salt tolerance, focusing on the double-edged sword effect of ROS, the regulatory role of phytohormones, and the trade-off effects of ROS and phytohormones between crop yield and salt tolerance. A future challenge is to identify superior alleles of key salt-tolerant genes that will accelerate the breeding of high-yield and salt-tolerant varieties. |
